Frequently Asked Questions

The 60s C profile is a comfortable middle ground – not as thick as a 50s neck, but with more substance than a slim 70s profile, offering good sustain and playability.
Like any nitrocellulose finish, it’s susceptible to wear, so a little care is needed. A good quality polish and careful handling will help maintain its appearance.
While physically possible, it would require modifications to the pickguard and wiring; it’s not a simple plug-and-play replacement.
